What are the level illumination of soccer field lights?

Lighting a professional soccer field requires a much greater level of illumination of soccer field lights. For instance, if you intend to light a soccer field that is used only for practice without spectators, a field that measures 180’ X 330’ will usually only require 30-foot candles of light. A professional soccer stadium, by contrast, will need more than twice the lighting- approximately 75 foot-candles.

With new fields, comes the need for professional outdoor lighting. Investing in a soccer field lighting system from Razorlux Illuminations for your youth, league-level, recreational, and professional field provides the ultimate environment for playing any time of day.

Soccer field lights should provide optimal illumination with bright, evenly-distributed beams that reduce light spillover and shadowing and make it possible for the ball to be seen easily, even when it’s in action, anywhere on the pitch. The sightlines of spectators and the performance of players, as well as safety, is paramount. If you want to improve on “the beautiful game,” designing and installing a state-of-the-art soccer field lighting system is a good way of helping that process along.

When we install a soccer field lighting system at an athletic field at a park, recreation center, club, or sports facility, we look at a number of factors. We determine the best amount of light for safety, performance, and outdoor conditions.

The result is a low-maintenance design that is optimized for players, fans, and media. Also, a standard or LED soccer field lighting system should be created with the help of designers who understand how to conform to local municipal codes and the recommendations set down by the U.S. Soccer Federation and other sports governing bodies.
